Zhenjiang Prefecture is not large in size and is not very famous in Jiangnan. It is more than a little worse than Suzhou, Hangzhou and Jinling.

But here it can indeed be regarded as a gathering of mountains and rivers, with outstanding people and beautiful places.

Not only was the Jinshan Temple, the first of the four major temples, built here today, the Maoshan School, a very important branch of Taoism, also in Zhenjiang Prefecture!

There are mountains in the western suburbs of Zhenjiang Prefecture. The mountains are not large, about ten kilometers long from north to south and five kilometers east to west. Among them, the main peak, the big Maofeng, which is like the head of the green dragon, is the main location of the Maoshan School. The two Maofengs and three Maofengs wind downwards, which is very layered, like a natural ladder, step by step from low to high.

On the top of the Great Mao Peak, there is a palace called Jiuxiao Wanfu Palace. It is magnificent and very spectacular.

However, since the establishment of the Dali Dynasty, Buddhism has been growing prosperous, but Taoism has been on the verge of decline. Especially in recent decades, when Buddhist monks such as Fahai have gained great reputations one after another, more and more officials in the court have become Buddhist believers like Prince Liang, and Buddhist conferences are often held, etc., Buddhism has completely suppressed Taoism.

Therefore, in Zhenjiang Prefecture, Jinshan Temple was in full bloom and there were many monks. The Maoshan School seemed much deserted, and Taoist priests were far less than the thousands of monks in Jinshan Temple.

At this time, an old Taoist priest wearing a yellow Taoist robe, holding a whisk in his hand, and a long black beard was sitting cross-legged.

Suddenly, he frowned, then opened his eyes, pinched his fingers and began to calculate. Soon there was anger in his eyes, and it was speculated that Wang Daoling died in Suzhou City.

The old Taoist priest is named Sima Shizheng and his magic name is Bai Yunzi. He is one of the famous masters of the Maoshan Sect. His cultivation and strength are the top Maoshan Sect.

Wang Daoling is his disciple.

At this time, Wang Daoling died in Suzhou City. As a master, he naturally could not ignore it. He had to go to Suzhou Prefecture to find out the truth.

He actually knows what Wang Daoling is in nature.

However, Taoism is declining now. When Wang Daoling wanted to join the Maoshan Sect, he was already at the Nascent Soul Realm and was already a rare master in the world. In addition, he sincerely wanted to join the righteous path, Sima Shizheng accepted him.

This is like Fahai saw Xin Shisi Niang and Xu Xian, and he wanted to fool him into Jinshan Temple and enter the Buddhist sect. Because in this way, he could strengthen the sect.

Wang Daoling was not a notorious demon at the beginning. He wanted to join the Maoshan Sect, so Sima Shizheng naturally would not refuse.

After joining the Maoshan Sect, he was a member of the Maoshan Sect. Now that Wang Daoling is dead, Sima Shizheng naturally has to ask for an explanation for him.

But just as he was about to leave, a middle-aged Taoist priest who looked much younger and in his thirties walked in outside the door and saw Bai Yunzi who was leaving and asked in surprise: "Senior Brother, where are you going?"

"Junior Brother Guangning." The old Taoist priest smiled slightly when he saw the visitor.

If Xu Xian was here, he would be very surprised. This middle-aged Taoist priest was Guangningzi, the down-and-out middle-aged Taoist priest who gave him practice in Qiantang County!

Sima Shizheng roughly said what he had guessed. Guangningzi nodded after hearing this and said, "My Maoshan Sect disciple was killed outside, so I have to find out clearly. I just happened to want to go to Suzhou Prefecture, so I will go with my senior brother."

Sima Shizheng was slightly surprised when he heard this and asked, "Junior brother, you have been traveling around the world in recent years. You just returned to the mountain gate not long ago. Didn't you say you were going to retreat and practice for a while and digest the gains and insights of traveling abroad in recent years? Why are you preparing to go to Suzhou Prefecture again?"

Guangningzi smiled slightly, but said without saying a word: "Go to see someone."

Qiantang County just made a good relationship without thinking too much. But he knew that it was not long before the other party had such luck?

The number one talented man in Jiangnan, the number one in Suzhou Prefecture exam, and is famous all over the world...

...

...

The Gui List has been released, and the Qiuwei Township Examination has come to an end, but Suzhou Prefecture is still lively and has not diminished.

Those who were on the list became popular in a short time. Although the provincial examination was not like the imperial examination, after passing the Jinshi, they would be given a banquet by the emperor, but there were also various official banquets and invitations from private cultural associations were sent to them and invited to attend.

The younger the one and the greater the potential, the more invitations they receive. People are not stupid. Those who can pass the imperial examination at a young age will definitely not be difficult to become a Jinshi. In the future, they will be the imperial court officials. Now they will win over and get in handy sooner or later.

Xu Xian received the most invitations.

"Miss Xiaoqing..." A young man with a folding fan in hand found the inn, but he didn't look for Xu Xian, but came specifically for Xiaoqing.

This person was Zhang Yutang who offended Liang Lian at Songhe Tower and had a relationship with Xiaoqing.

"Why are you?" Xiaoqing looked at Liang Lian in wonder.

"I... I'm here to find you, Miss Xiaoqing." Liang Lian felt a little embarrassed and said timidly.

"Look for me?" Xiaoqing was even more puzzled and asked, "Is there anything wrong with me?"

"Uh..." When Xiaoqing asked this, Liang Lian didn't know what to say.

Can he say that after the last time he met, your shadow was lingering in his mind, and it was lingering? Can he say that I am unrequited and miss you all the time?

Zhang Yutang is not a shy nerd, otherwise he would not have dared to pluck up the courage to come to him. However, he is well-educated and polite. It would be too abrupt to say this.

"I'm here to say goodbye to Miss Xiaoqing. I'm leaving Suzhou Prefecture tomorrow and back to Qiantang County." Zhang Yutang's face turned red, and many words reached his throat several times, but he found that he had no way to speak, so he had to swallow it back, and finally turned into a sigh and said goodbye.

His knowledge is not very good, and he is not sure whether he can pass the exam or not. What's more, he met Xiaoqing before this exam, and he couldn't concentrate on his mind. He kept thinking about the beauty in his mind. Naturally, this provincial examination failed and was unknown on the list.

If he failed to pass the imperial examination, it would naturally be meaningless to stay in Suzhou Prefecture. He was about to go back.

"That's it." Xiaoqing felt very strange in her heart. We are not very familiar with each other. Is it necessary to come and tell me specifically if you want to go back? But I thought so in my heart, Xiaoqing wouldn't say it directly, and smiled and said, "Then I wish you peace all the way and we will meet again in the future."

Zhang Yutang looked at Xiaoqing's extremely lively and gorgeous smile, and his heart swayed, and immediately asked without hesitation: "When will we meet again?"

"Ha?" Xiaoqing was stunned.

Zhang Yutang also quickly came to his senses. Knowing that he was not right to ask the law, he couldn't help but blush. He quickly lowered his head and did not dare to look at Xiaoqing's eyes again, and forced himself to explain: "I want to ask when will you and Mr. Xu go back to Hangzhou Prefecture?"

Xiaoqing didn't think too much and said casually: "It's not settled yet." After saying that, she looked at Xu Xian and Bai Suzhen who were about to go out, and couldn't wait to say: "I have something to do, let's go first... Sister, wait for me!"

Looking at Xiaoqing's departure back, Zhang Yutang raised his hand and was about to say something, but found that Xiaoqing had disappeared and looked lonely.

"well……"
